I’m playing Tales of Symphonia these days and I’m trying really hard to get this guy to like me so it made me want to draw him. Also I love Alvin costume on him ⭐️

Loving the Locks

@sunset-wings

People touching his hair had always been something that he tended to pull away from, unless it was someone he knew. When it was someone like Yui though, he couldn’t help relaxing and leaning into her touch. He enjoyed the sensation, sometimes even when it was people he didn’t want to touch him, but with Yui it wasn’t just enjoyment, it was bliss.

“I’m just going to sit here forever if you keep that up,” he said after a moment of her fingers in his hair. “Anything else I need to do can just wait.” His eyes were closed, his body almost completely relaxed as he stretched and settled into a position where she could more easily access the curls.

Yui continued to ease her fingers through his silky locks, chuckling to herself at his words. “I’m not against that but do you have any obligations that I need to keep in mind?”

The last thing she wanted was to accidentally make him miss some obligation, on purpose was one thing and she would take credit for when she did that but the accidental ones were the one she felt bad about.

“I could probably style your hair, the way it just seems to follow whatever I do to it.” she teased.

[sunset-wings]

He chuckled, eyes still closed. "If you styled it, I'd wear it that way for the rest of the day no matter how questionable it might look." It was partially a challenge because he knew she would rise to the occasion and partially a desire for her to keep playing with his hair. Besides, she ought to know by now that he could care less what other people thought of him. Hilda had dared him into his share of absurd looks in the past. He shifted slightly and cracked one eye to peer at her through his lashes for a moment.

"Hm...obligations to keep in mind...no. You're good." Anything he needed to deal with could wait, time with Yui was more important anyway.

Zelos eyed his children, wondering what had prompted this request and also vaguely wondering if his other son was lurking nearby and would demand to come along. The flowers were indeed in full bloom, to the lament of Seles, whose allergies kept her largely indoors. A trip away from the castle was the part that prompted a raised eyebrow from the former Chosen. There were half a dozen gardens around the palace and the Wilder manor also featured heavily landscaped floral gardens, despite Seles’ allergies. In fact the entire noble quarter contained plenty of flowers and if he and Hilda had snuck out as children he was sure his children were not above doing the same.

“Away from the castle, hm? Just how far away are we talking?” He suspected they had approached him over their mother as he was the one who frequently left the city. Hilda had the crown and the power, Zelos was ostensibly an ‘ambassador’ but really he just liked to go visit Lloyd and the others when he was tired of the headache of the nobility.

Catalina was proud of herself to get Callisthenes this interested in leaving the castle. He was so nervous to venture outside, but it seemed the flowers had him yearning for a little exploration. “Somewhere out of the city!” She answered excitedly, at the same time as Callisthenes, but his request was different.

“Just the area around the castle!”

Her heart dropped a little. She was trying to get her ‘little’ brother less afraid of the outside world and more willing to see the good in the common people. That meant being removed from the palace and its bubble of protection.

“What are you wanting to leave the castle for?” Cassians’ voice echoed down the hall, filling it with a judgement and condescension. 

[sunset-wings]

As expected, Cassian had materialized, no doubt drawn by his sibling's voices. Zelos eyed him, noting the expression of disdain on his face. Despite his words, he was sure Cassian had contemplated sneaking out plenty of times before, if he hadn't already acted on such urges. In fact, the only one Zelos suspected had not been out of the palace dozens of times, either in disguise or with 'permission', was Callisthenes. Where the boy's timid approach to life had come from, Zelos couldn't say. Both of his siblings had inherited at least some of their parent's temperment and occasional willful disregard for rules. 

"Around the castle can be arranged easily enough" he admitted. There were dozens of flower-viewing parties and organized strolls already planned, he'd been invited to too many to bother counting. Somehow even being married and having three teenage children hadn't diminished his popularity with the ladies, despite the fact that he no longer casually bedded them as he had before the marriage. He supposed his still high status had something to do with that, and of course the fact that his good looks lingered even as he aged. "If we're going a little further afield there may need to be some planning. Your mother may be lenient on my disappearances but she'd raise a fuss if I took you lot with me."

[sunset-wings]

Sorry, Goose coming through. Knocking over vases and making a general mess. Don't mind him.

Zelos eyed the now broken vase and wondered how the goose had managed to get past Sebastian. The man had been stopping assassins and shallow floozies he wasn't in the mood to deal with from getting anywhere near Zelos for years but somehow this goose had managed to dodge him. He watched it tugging on a curtain and tried to decide if he cared enough to get up and chase it out.

[sunset-wings]

Well the ten year anniversary of this blog existing came and went without me noticing, since I haven't really been paying attention to it for a couple years.

The last post was from 2020? geeze. Time blindness strikes again.

I was missing Zelos again so I looked at my drafts and wound up queueing up a couple of posts that I apparantly responded to but never posted in some misguided notion that I would queue them up when I was ready to be properly active again.

I wouldn't get your hopes up about me being active again anytime soon but I have been considering the notion of doing a fresh start. I don't think I have it in me to try and reply to everything I previously owed (and most of the partners are probably gone now anyway) so I've been toying with the idea of just starting from sccratch.

Existing relationships would still be there if the other writer is still around and wants that, but old threads won't get a response unless they specifically ask for one.
